What a great class we had with Ken Burns last Friday. Today we talked about his visit and wrote about and shared some of the salient points of his time with us. What may have caught our attention, stood out as important moment or idea he may have shared with us. Ken will be back sometime after the new year.
Today I handed out the ever popular UpFront Magazine. I assigned two readings and then encouraged the class to read other articles and discuss them with you. This issue contains some great articles parents will be interested in.
Looking Ahead - Homework
Read two articles for Tuesday: pps. 10-12 Freedom Riders and pps. 14-15 Corporal Punishment in Schools
Friday: Our first Test. Students will be taking the U.S. Citizenship Test themselves - Questions 1-40. I hope they study and do as wll as most of you did. They should have all the answers to the questions in there binders.
Hoping you all have a great holiday.
Best,
Steve
